According to Velocys, Toyo will integrate biomass gasification, Velocys\u2019 Fischer Tropsch (FT) technology, and other process technologies to convert woody biomass into SAF during this phase of the proposed project.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis step towards a commercial-scale biorefinery in Japan shows the increasing momentum of the Sustainable Aviation Fuel market,\u201d said Henrik Wareborn, CEO of Velocys.\u00a0\u201cThis announcement of a woody biomass project and last week\u2019s\u00a0announcement of the e-fuels project<\/a>\u00a0also with Toyo, build upon our successful demonstration last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In that announcement, released Aug. 25, Velocys said its FT technology has been selected for an e-fuels project by Toyo and a consortium of Japanese companies, including Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corp., Toshiba Corp., Idemitsu Kosan Co. Ltd., Japan CCS Co. Ltd., and All Nippon Airways Co. Ltd. According to Velocys, these six companies are being commissioned by Japan\u2019s Ministry of the Environment to commence a demonstration project that aims to commercialize a SAF supply chain based on carbon recycling and regional revitalization through CO2<\/sub> recycling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Velocys and Toyo\u00a0signed a collaboration agreement<\/a>\u00a0in February 2021 to start development of commercial projects to produce SAF and other renewable fuels in Japan. The agreement followed work conducted in 2020 between the two companies at the biomass-to-jet-demonstration facility in Japan. In June, Velocys announced that SAF produced using the company\u2019s proprietary technology was\u00a0used in a commercial flight<\/a>\u00a0by Japan Airlines. The fuel used in that flight was produced in a Velocys FT reactor from the hydrogen and carbon gases generated by the gasification of wood chips at the demonstration plant in Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
